Purple for Robert💜

Long Island Walk

We're fundraising for Robert Grossman

Robert Grossman was a devoted father, husband, son, brother, and friend. He dedicated his life to serving others as a police officer, but his greatest joy was spending time with the people he loved. He was an avid fisherman who loved the water, his Grady-White boat, and making memories with family and friends—whether it was tying up at the beach, spending a day out on the water, or simply being together.

Robert was the kind of person who would always stop whatever he was doing to be there for his family and friends. No matter what was going on, if someone needed him, he was there. Now, we want to do the same for him. We are walking in his honor, carrying on his memory and legacy, and turning our love for him into something that can help others.

Robert was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in April 2023 and sadly passed away on October 10, 2023. We love and miss him more every day, and although we wish more than anything that he could be here with us, we are honored to continue his legacy by participating in Lustgarten’s Walk for Pancreatic Cancer Research.

We are walking to help fund critical research, advance early detection and new treatments, and support Lustgarten’s vision of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease. We hope you will join our team, donate to our team, or simply share our page with others. Every contribution provides hope to the thousands of families whose lives have been touched by this devastating disease.

Why Lustgarten? Lustgarten Foundation is the nation’s largest private funder of pancreatic cancer research. Thanks to separate funding of administrative expenses, 100% of the funds raised through this walk go toward pancreatic cancer research—research led by Lustgarten and powered by supporters like you.

With your support, we can raise more for pancreatic cancer research than we ever could alone.

For Daddy. For Robert. For his memory, his legacy, and for all the families still waiting for a cure. 💜

You were always there for us. Now, we walk for you.
